After half a cup of milk, she was exhausted and wanted to go to the bed, but after taking a few steps, her legs gave way and she fell to the ground.
She held herself on the ground and tried to get up, but the fatigue swept over her like a flood. She had to hook the armrest of the chair in front of her to prevent herself from falling down.
She wanted to call Mu Xiang in, but she even lost the strength to make a sound.
She gasped helplessly.
Mu Xiang was holding a plate of fruit and was pressing her hand on the door when she suddenly saw Jiang Huaiyang walking over. She tightened her grip on the fruit plate slightly, stepped aside and bowed to salute.
Jiang Huaiyang glanced at the fruit plate and stepped in.
In the wing room, the young lady was curled up at the foot of the chair, weakly clinging to the armrest, her back turned to herself, and her face could not be seen clearly. The moonlight was like water, pouring to the floor, vaguely reflecting the dark lines on her dress.
The moon-white dress was like a pool of cold water, spreading around her, seeming to blend her into the light and shadow falling on the ground.
Ruan Yuyi heard the sound of someone coming in, and her heart moved slightly, but she couldn't force her body to turn around.
His eyes dimmed, he went forward and knelt down beside her, pinched her chin, "I heard that Lingling went out today? Did you have a good time?" There was fear in her eyes.
He has always been good at maneuvering and knows how to control people's hearts.
I also know that the bird in the cage will always be closed, and sooner or later it will lose the idea of escape. Only if you allow her to spread her wings occasionally and let her know that she does not belong here, her life will not be so comfortable.
But she knew that was not the case, and she felt ashamed.
She was unable to answer and half-closed her eyes. Under the influence of the cartilage powder, it seemed that she was left to be manipulated at will.
He didn't care at all whether she could reply to him, and continued on his own, "I heard that you went to find Jiang Qi, and you were still waiting for the smoke and willows." He stroked the wound on her face and spoke in a low voice.
When it comes to Yanliu Di, he can almost imagine that the young lady is wearing light clothes, with her shoulders half exposed, walking between the banquets. I don’t know how many eyes are focused on her, and she is walking forward holding a wine cup,
He responded with a smile.
As she walked around, maybe accidentally or something else, the dark red wine spilled on her and soaked her clothes. The skin inside was as bright as jade, attracting people's attention.
His breath on the side of her neck became hotter and hotter.
Even though she expected that he would find out sooner or later, she still trembled slightly.
"Are you so happy with him?"
She wanted to shake her head, but she could only move her eyes slightly. If he knew that she went to find the prince, he would not know why she went there. It was hard to say that his words contained bad intentions and he deliberately questioned her.
He did not stop holding her chin, causing her pain.
He came back from nowhere. He was still cold and his clothes were as cold as iron. He carried the young lady to the couch and put a mandarin pillow behind her. It seemed that he wanted to make her lean back more comfortably, but he failed.
It made her feel cold all over.
She wanted to glare at him, but she looked helpless because of her weakness.
Seeing his hand falling, she was startled and closed her eyes subconsciously. However, she felt a slight chill on her cheeks. When she opened her eyes, she saw that there was still ointment on his fingers and he was holding a porcelain bottle in his other hand. This delicately drawn porcelain bottle was
His hand looked particularly small, as if he could crush it with just a little force.
With dark eyes, Jiang Huaiyang carefully applied the Shuhen Cream on her.
Although he had a grudge against her, he never had the idea of hurting her. That maid was really crazy, not only clumsy in her hands and feet, but also full of thoughts. No wonder Jiang Qi didn't keep her in mind.
But although the movements of his hands were gentle, Ruan Yuyi could somehow feel his anger.
The cold touch on her cheek felt like being licked by a giant beast, it was the toying with the prey before eating. One after another, it made people shudder, but she could not resist.
He was too careful, and his hands covered with plaster slid down, caressed her slender neck, and lifted her shoulder straps.
He bit her ears and said, "Does it have to be like this, so you know how to behave better?" He was really evil. He had set a trap for her early, but now he was openly accusing her of her faults.
The next day, she slowly woke up and looked down. She had changed into clean clothes. The effects of yesterday's medicine had almost disappeared, but her body was still a little weak when moving. She held on to the bedpost and got off the bed.
When Mu Xiang heard the commotion, she pushed the door open with the water she had prepared for washing, put it on the basin stand, and came over to help her.
She staggered every step she took, almost resting most of her body weight on Mu Xiang.
"Miss——" Mu Xiang's eyes were full of worry. She wanted to formulate a few words but because of the identity of the other party, she hesitated on her lips and did not dare to blurt out.
Ruan Yuyi didn't react much and just shook her head, indicating that it was nothing serious.
She let out a sigh of relief. Her gaze fell outside the window, as if she was looking at some extremely distant place.
The carved window lattice can only reveal a corner of the courtyard. Birds are chirping on the branches, and a bamboo pole for drying clothes is stuck below. The maids hang up the clothes, and the birds are frightened and fly up.
Perhaps she was so crazy that she stared at the window and walked outside to see if the bird had flown out of the yard.
The maid guarding the door of the wing stopped her and said respectfully, "Talent, your Majesty has ordered that you are not allowed to leave this room for the time being."
You can see the branch from here, but the bird has long disappeared.
She lowered her eyes, turned around and walked back.
The servants in the courtyard may have been ordered to treat her respectfully, but they all said in the same tone that His Majesty would not allow her to leave the wing.
Probably due to the effect of the cartilage powder yesterday, she was very lazy, so she leaned on the pillow on the couch and took a nap at noon.
She was awakened by the shrill cries of a woman in the courtyard.
The man in Xuanyi next to him said softly, "Lingling, have you had enough sleep? You were not awake when I left this morning, and you were still asleep when I came here now. It seems that you are indeed very tired."
"His Majesty."
Jiang Huaiyang didn't stop her from saluting, and watched coldly as she almost fell when she stood up. She grabbed the edge of the bed before she could stand still.
He leaned back slightly and spoke in a leisurely tone, as if he was talking about something insignificant, "I told them to stop the man's mouth. It's so laborious, so it would be easier if I just remove the tongue."
She tightened her grip on the hand beside the couch, "Who is that outside?" Although she already had some idea in her mind, she still asked.
As if to reply to her words, Jiang Huaiyang motioned to the guards to bring the person in.
The guard pressed Yuesha down and threw her to the ground without mercy. Her hands were tied, and she fell hard to the ground. It took a lot of effort before she straightened up.
The half of her treasured gold hairpin in her hair was already shaky. She had not applied makeup, and her face was as pale as paper. Perhaps due to the recent hard work, she had lost a bit of her former color.
When she arrived in front of Ruan Yuyi, she stopped crying and just stared at Yuyi.
She didn't know what he was going to do, and her intuition was not good, so she turned back to look into his eyes.
